Clinical Trial Summary

Background: The purpose of the present study is to research whether stress scale scores alter with relationship to gingival inflammation and examine the impact of non-surgical periodontal therapy during pregnancy on the levels of cytokines in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and on salivary stress-related hormones.

Methods: 30 non-pregnant (control group) and 30 pregnant women (test group) who fulfilled the study inclusion criteria were chosen. The participants with moderate/severe gingivitis were included. Clinical data and samples of GCF and salivary were collected at baseline and after periodontal therapy. The levels of cytokines interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) and IL-10, and concentration of salivary chromogranin A (Cg A) hormone were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits.


Clinical Trial Description

Periodontal clinical measurements and periodontal treatment were applied by a previously trained and calibrated examiner. Clinical parameters measurements including; probing pocket depths (PPD; the distance from the gingival margin to the base of the gingival sulcus), clinical attachment level (CAL), full mouth gingival index (GI)21 and plaque index (PI)20 scores using a periodontal probe were registered following saliva and GCF sample collection. Then, non-surgical periodontal therapy (NPT) consisted of scaling, root planning, and oral hygiene instruction was applied. Clinical measurements, recruitment of GCF, and saliva samples were repeated after three weeks.

Gingival Crevicular Fluid and Saliva Sample Collection Selected anterior teeth for GCF sampling were isolated from saliva using cotton rolls, a gentle stream of air was conducted parallel to the root surface for 5 to 10 seconds to dry the area.

The periopaper strips were gently inserted into the gingival crevice until resistance was felt and were left in place for 30 s and were collected from mesio-buccal sulcus of teeth in the anterior region of each patient (two samples per patient and per visit). The samples containing blood were discarded and were placed in sterile Eppendorf tubes and were stored at -20°C until the assay procedure. ;
